The Carolina Hurricanes have signed defenseman Pierre-Olivier Joseph to a one-year, $850,000 contract. The 27-year-old, who has played 31 games with the Vancouver Canucks last season and has a total of 225 NHL games, brings nine goals and 46 points to the team. Joseph’s strong underlying numbers in a third-pairing role, despite injury issues and playing for a struggling team, likely influenced the signing. This move adds depth to the Hurricanes as they prepare for training camp, especially with uncertainty surrounding Alexander Nikishin.
